COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Somerset Cider Bus has been making its annual pilgrimage to the Glastonbury festival for the last 38 years.Parked near the pyramid stage it has served from wooden barrels farm pressed cider and hot spiced cider to thousands of happy festival goers every year. In our Orchards at Burrow Hill we grow 40 varieties of vintage cider apples on more than 12,000 apple trees. In the autumn, we harvest, press, ferment and blend the apples to make our traditional prize winning ciders.

downender (4389) - Bristol, - DEC 5, 2010
Bottle from the Bristol Cider Shop. Golden in colour with slight carbonation. Light aroma of fresh, slightly sweet apple juice with a hint of the barnyard in the background. Flavour was a bit more dry, with traces of green herbs and flintiness complementing the juicy fruit, leading to a medium finish. A pretty good cider, and certainly far better than any other "serve over ice" brand I have tried.

Ungstrup (23961) - Oamaru, NEW ZEALAND - JUN 2, 2011
Cask at Southampton Arms, London. A hazy golden cider. The aroma has notes of fresh apples. The flavor is boringly dry with notes of apple core, leading to a dry and tart finish.

From cask at Southampton Arms, as Glastonbury Cider Bus. Pours cloudy orange with a fully gone head. Aroma is dry sulphorish and mild acidic apple. Light sweet, apple, a bit flat in flavour and acidic without being citric. Sticky to the teeth. Ends dry and acidic.
